The
only way mankind or humanity can reestablish their relationship to God which is
the tree of life, is through Jesus Christ our Lord. Only through Jesus Christ
we can have eternal life the way humanity or mankind was created to be before
the Fall of Man: before Adam and Even sinned. Or in other words, mankind or our
great ancestors Adam and Even according to the book of Genesis within the Holy
Bible, were created in The Image of God-mind you, God is love, and love is
righteous and everlasting. Everlasting (according to Revelation 1:8). Jesus
Christ is the way, the truth, and the life-the light to this world. Only
through Him (because He is everlasting: which means the truth of His Word is
everlasting), we could walk in His way (follow Him 100% fully and truly, become
a true Church, enlighten this world with His light) and have eternal life which
was promised to everyone who believe in Him, according to John 3:16. See my
friends, Jesus Christ ascended to heaven but He gave us The Holy Spirit or
comforter (His promise for the Holy Spirit according to John 14:15-31). Or in
other Words, having The Holy Spirit or Comforter within us is having Jesus
Christ since our God is The Trinity Perfect God (God The Father, God The Son,
and God The Holy Spirit). Having one of them is having all of them since they
are one or united in love-which defines them-character and principality. To
further stress this fact, let’s take a closer specific look at the parable of
the virgins according to Mathew 25 within The Holy Bible, in which some were
wise while others were foolish.
To
make things much simpler for any eight grader to understand (which they must be
able to), let’s start by defining every entity within this parable. First of
all, the word Virgin symbolizes something pure and unused. Since God is love
(righteous), those united in love (God’s Character- His principality) are in a
relationship with each other and God: in which they are His creation united in Him,
God or love. So the term virgin symbolizes those who are in a relationship with
God-following Jesus Christ’s example 100 % fully and truly simply because they
have The Holy Spirit within them.
The
oil within this parable symbolizes The Holy Spirit. Referring to the parable,
they were all virgins simply because they had The Holy Spirit within them. So
by having the Holy Spirit within them (which is the same as having Jesus Christ
within them), they were able to follow Jesus Christ’s example 100% fully and
truly.
The
lamp/s within this parable symbolizes the human soul which is made up of God’s
breath plus dust- which is a living human being. According to the book of
Genesis within The Holy Bible, God formed Adam or man (the first human being)
out of dust and breathed His breath of life into Adam’s nostrils which Adam
became a living soul- the state of being alive. Note that any lamp shines light
because of oil.
Darkness
within this scenario or context of this parable symbolizes sin, iniquity,
selfishness or this sinful planet we call earth. Ever since Adam and Eve first
sinned or the introduction of sin to planet earth in The Garden of Eden (in
which we refer to as The Fall of Man), planet earth reaped the consequences of
sin, according to Genesis 3:15-19. Thus simply saying or explaining the fact
that every human being born to this earth is born into sin or darkness.
The
light from the lamps which enabled the virgins to “see” through the darkness is
Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the light to this planet earth since He is our
perfect example. He was born into this sinful earth, yet found without sin
(illuminating God’s principality or Character) and then ascended to heaven.
A
bridegroom in simple definition, is a man participant in his own wedding
ceremony or the man who is about to marry the woman in a wedding ceremony. The
bridegroom here within this parable symbolizes God (God The Father, God The
Son, and God The Holy Spirit).
A
bride in simple definition, is a woman participant in her own marriage or the
woman who is about to marry the man in a wedding ceremony. The bride within
this parable symbolizes The Church, God’s Church-The true Church (people who
100% fully and truly follow Jesus Christ’s example according to God’s Word The
Holy Bible).
Marriage
is actually a ceremony verifying and acknowledging the joining or union of a life
time relationship in and through love, between a man and a woman (a male and a
female according to The Holy Bible). Marriage within this parable symbolizes
Jesus Christ’s second coming-when God reestablishes the relationship with
mankind that was previously broken due to the introduction of sin (since The
Fall of Man).
The
Delay and the state of the virgins falling asleep (slept) within Mathew 25:5
symbolizes the day and the hour of Jesus Christ’s second coming. No one knows
the day or the hour of Jesus Christ’s second coming except God, simply because
only God controls time (pause, rewind, forward, knows the future, etc…) and no
one else (not even any living organisms created within this entire universe).
The
wise virgins who carried extra oil with them which gave them light till the
bridegroom came, symbolizes those (people) who grow in Christ, baptize with The
Holy Spirit, infilled with The Holy Spirit, have The Holy Spirit (which is the
same as having Jesus Christ within them) throughout their life time (every day
of their life) here on planet earth.
The
foolish virgins who never carried extra oil with them, symbolizes those
(people) who do not grow in Christ every day, still have iniquity or sin within
them and not The Holy Spirit (or Jesus Christ) within them throughout their
life time (every day of their life) here on planet earth.
That’s
how important or essential “The Oil is” for every Christian or follower of
Jesus Christ, metaphorically speaking. Yes, Jesus Christ is the way, the truth
and the life-light. We can only follow His example 100% fully and truly if we
have Him within us: His temple, vessel, church or lamp. Having Jesus Christ
within us is in fact having The Holy Spirit within us. We do that by simply
dying to the “self” (selfishness: satan’s principality) everyday through Jesus
Christ, growing in Christ, baptize with The Holy Spirit, infilled with The Holy
Spirit, having The Holy Spirit within us every day of our lives by reading The
Holy Bible and most essentially prayer (which we must ask Jesus to baptize or
infill us with The Holy Spirit: Him to come and abide within us apart from our
other requests). This is the only way we can have eternal life, be the true
church, and do the church’s commission effectively and efficiently simply
because Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life-light. “WE CAN DO NOTHING BUT
ONLY THROUGH HIM.” Remember, eternal life is real, Jesus Christ is coming
again, time is something we all don’t have, and the power of choice is yours…
